      Thanks for your feedback Josh!

      The headset's microphone boom acts as a mute switch. You would simply need to rotate it to the muted position, and your mic will mute.

      If you continue to have the same experience; please know that we’re always happy to help, and we can be reached right from the support section of the Turtle Beach website as needed.

      Thanks! TurtleBeach

    I bought it and it worked great when I talked in an Xbox party but when I switched to game chat the mic would tweak and the other person on the other end wouldn’t be able to hear a single word. Not worth the purchase just spend your money on a more expensive turtle beach for a better performance.
